Well, for the details - see for example here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=133111
how does a 3.14.1 built the way described earlier fails.

And for that matter - see the whole bugzilla bug entry - I went on and bisected 
this, using the linux-stable git tree, and after that landed me on the commit 
that introduces some "shiny new btrfs feature" for 3.14 - I decided my git 
bisection has gone wrong. And because I reported it on April 17-th and since 
then there has been no activity on the bugzilla entry besides me updating it - 
I posted my problem here, for more eyes to see.

See the result of "diff config-v3.14.1-mix64 config-v3.13.11-mix64" in the 
attached file.

Good to know! Thanks!
